Academic Learning

At this age, we believe that parents and children should still have a choice in whether their children learn academic subjects. If you think your child is showing an interest in this type of learning, we recommend a highly hands on, creative approach such as Montessori or Waldorf. Also an integrated approach using Montessori and Waldorf concepts and values has been done successfully. If your child is showing no interest, we urge you not to push. It will come. Children learn best and fastest when they choose to.
